Developer and publisher Tripwire Interactive today announced that the highly anticipated next chapter in the studio’s legendary Killing Floor franchise, Killing Floor 3, will be delayed and will not launch on the previously announced release date of March 25. Revealed in a message directly to its community, Tripwire, with support from its parent company The Embracer Group, announced the delay and discussed initial details on what the team is evaluating as priority issues to address. The delay will move the game’s launch to a date to be determined later in 2025. Fans who have pre-ordered the game will be offered refunds and can refer to the online FAQ for additional details.
Killing Floor 3 is the next installment in the legendary co-op action/horror FPS series. The year is 2091, 70 years after the events in Killing Floor 2, and megacorp Horzine has produced the ultimate army: an obedient horde of bio-engineered monstrosities called Zeds. Now, the only thing standing between these infernal creations and the future of humanity is the rebel rogue group known as Nightfall. This intense first-person shooter puts players in the role of a Nightfall specialist, joining forces with up to five teammates as they battle through a war-ravaged, dystopian future, surviving unrelenting waves of Zeds, unlocking new skills, and building the ultimate arsenal.
Developed and published by Tripwire Interactive, Killing Floor 3 is currently in development for PC (via Steam and Epic Games Store), the PlayStation®5 system, and the Xbox Series X|S console system. More information regarding the game’s updated release date will be shared in the future.

Recently, publisher Owlcat Games, together with Emotion Spark Studio – the indie developer behind the narrative RPG Rue Valley – shared insights into the game’s development on the Human Can Opener Podcast. Praised by Disco Elysium creators Robert Kurvitz and Aleksander Rostov, Rue Valley is set to launch later this year, with a demo available now on Steam.
Starting development in 2020 with a team of four, Rue Valley draws inspiration from titles like Outer Wilds and Disco Elysium. The game features time-loop mechanics, where time progresses only through player interaction, and NPCs have their own unique worldviews that breathe life into the game. The personality system allows players to shape their character’s traits, ensuring each playthrough is unique.
The game’s hand-drawn art style, inspired by stop-motion and the “Spider-Verse” films, combines semi-3D visuals with comic-book aesthetics. Years of experimentation went into perfecting the lighting, textures, and animations.
A pivotal moment in development came when Disco Elysium creators Robert Kurvitz, Aleksander Rostov, and Helen Hindpere visited Belgrade and played the Rue Valley demo. Their insights not only validated the team’s creative vision but also provided invaluable feedback that helped refine its core elements.
Kurvitz, renowned for his groundbreaking work in Disco Elysium and his novel Sacred and Terrible Air, was immediately drawn to the game’s isometric art style and dialogue system. At one particularly challenging moment in gameplay, his genuine excitement upon overcoming it electrified the Emotion Spark team, reinforcing their belief in the game’s depth and engagement.
Hindpere, playing the demo separately, described Rue Valley as both familiar and refreshingly original. She recognized similarities in storytelling tools and dialogue mechanics but emphasized that the game carves its own path.
Rostov, the visionary art director of Disco Elysium, delved into the visual identity of Rue Valley. During a follow-up visit to the studio, he engaged in an in-depth discussion about the art style, even suggesting thoughtful improvements like adding character shadows casting on themselves, which left a lasting impression on the team.
Their feedback served as both encouragement and inspiration, reaffirming Rue Valley’s potential as a bold and emotionally complex narrative RPG.
Marko Smiljanic, Creative Director at Emotion Spark, described the experience as surreal. He mentioned that meeting the creators of Disco Elysium—a game that heavily inspired Rue Valley—was both humbling and motivating. Hearing their feedback and seeing them enjoy the game was a dream come true for the team.
For players eager to experience Rue Valley, a free demo version is now available on Steam. The demo offers a glimpse into the game’s unique mechanics, art style, and narrative depth, allowing players to explore the world and systems that have already captivated industry veterans.

Chernobylite 2 is our dream project. After more than 10 years of various activities related to Chornobyl and dozens of visits to this place, we can finally share the massive part of what we consider the ultimate Chornobyl experience. What started with VR documentaries and low-scale indie projects has become a fully-fledged RPG game, playable in the open world, with hundreds of ways to craft your character and story.
Entering the world of Chernobylite 2, even in Early Access, you can expect to double or triple the time spent with the first game – not just because the Zone itself is about 20 times bigger this time but also thanks to the number of quests, events, encounters, and gameplay mechanics. On top of it, you can play from two different perspectives – first person or third person, which is possible thanks to the success of our recently finished Kickstarter campaign.
Our goal was to deliver the Early Access version, which is very advanced and polished in most parts. According to many closed playtests and our demo reception, most of the gameplay mechanics and big chunks of the content are already polished. Early Access contains about 30-40% of the final scope of the world and story. Most weapons and players’ equipment parts are already present in the game as lootable elements.
We believe that Chernobylite 2, similar to the first Chernobylite, will be a much better game, thanks to its development in Early Access. We have already seen that constant feedback from our community allows us to adapt our vision to players’ needs, and for a big RPG game, the number of adjustments we can make is huge. We estimate the game will stay in Early Access for 6-10 months. This is the time required to let your feedback influence a project of this scale and to validate together changes made during Early Access.
